CURRENT MISSION

To live well.

ABOUT ME

I'm a quiet nerd. Simple and true. :-)

PHILOSOPHY

I aspire to be some combination of the two characters, "Maude" from Harold and Maude, and "Elwood Dowd" from Harvey.
Perhaps it is not wise to model life on fiction but I find these two characters to be most admirable.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

noob. :-)

Interests

I love science and art. Any kind of making stuff -- nanomaterials, cooking, knitting, painting. Also love traveling. Moved to Utrecht, NL in August 2016, and I love it. It's sparked a real need to travel. :)
